Intel gathering and sharing like I’ve previously said during the entirety of the Cold War. They were a counterbalance in the region to prevent the spread of communism and it saved our a lot of headaches for us by protecting our interests. This is all clearly laid out in mainline history.Those countries all used Soviet weapons against Israel in ‘67 and ‘73, we didn’t sell them weapons because we figured they would use them on our friend. During and after those conflicts Israel shared Soviet military weapons technology and tactics with us to help us stay ahead of them around the world. What sources are you reading that lead you to believe U.S. national security would benefit from telling Israel to take a hike? Just curious.</blockquote>
